While Fireside attendance and sponsorship were hampered by busy schedules, those that were held were a success. They provided the opportunity for students and professors to get to know each other better on an informal basis. Most of them were held on Sunday nights and a snack or a meal was provided. One, held over VEISHEA, was a barbeque at the home of Reinee and Bill Hildebrant. At other firesides, students and professors honed their dart and billiard skills, made mini pizzas, and discussed the good old (and new) days.
